Hi, I am sorry I didn't reply to this before. I had some difficulties with it and it ended slipping out of radar.
Basically what I did to get Vilistextum to compile with multibyte is adding a build-dependency on "locales-all" and adding the following line to debian/rules: DEB_CONFIGURE_EXTRA_FLAGS = --enable-multibyte --with-unicode-locale=en_US.utf8 However, the resulting package wouldn't work on my system (running vilistextum resulted in error message "setlocale failed with: en_US.utf8") unless I installed "locales-all" on it. I suppose adding locales-all as a dependency of the binary package is not the right solution, but I don't really know what's going on here or what I'm doing wrong. If you can provide any pointers on how to fix this, or even a patch, this would be great. (By the way, if someone out there is really interested in this package, I'd be okay with handling over maintainance or co-maintainance of it).
